I got bored and started poking around the bastions of Out There, just to check on the state of the status quo. Immediately came upon a video from Granny Fussbudget. Fine, I thought, I'll spend a few minutes listening to him reading us articles like he's our third grade teacher again. Fine. Let's see what he's on about now.
He wasted thirteen minutes of my life making a HAIRY deal out of a certain line in the linked article; to wit:
You’ll be dealing with terrorists, you’ll be dealing with hybrid armies, you’ll be dealing with little green men, you’ll be dealing with tribes, you’re going to be dealing with it all, and you’re going to be dealing with it simultaneously.
...and gave me heartburn... or I did for letting myself in for it.
I'm telling you here and now, the general was speaking in PURELY terrestrial terms. He was NOT in any way telegraphing that our kids will be fighting tribes of space invaders with their half-human brethren presently growing up aboard a mothership waiting on the dark side of the moon. I promise.

It occurs to me we're developing a new Hoagland here, and that is not a good thing, although the pay is. Have I mentioned lately that the only reason money exists is to keep us enslaved? Some people just throw in the towel and go for it. Fuck the bliss ninnies. They're having a good time. Doing. Absolutely. Nothing. Meaningful.
always and any time....
